Do not bother trying to contact the company which made the unit they are being indigted on fraud. The good thing is that there is a simple solution to your problems. Replace the small fuse under the electric shrink wrap. This fuse is located near the red and green led lights on the electronic panel in the back of the unit. Replace with a 6.3 or 7 amp 250 volt fuse 3 x20mm , which can be found at Radio Shack. You will need to know how to solder in order to replace. All total cost to replace the fuse is about $3.00 and a half an hours time. The unit works great now, I paid another $3.00 to put in an inline fuse holder for the future when this fuse blows, if it does.

Try tapping on the thermostat it is probably sticking.
If it comes on then you will need to replace the thermostat.
Check the start relay on the compressor.
Check the fan motor on the compressor is it running?
Clean lint from underneath on the condensing coil.

Viking wine coolers are made by Marvel.They all had issues with freezing the contents. If you replace the electronic cold control system it will be fine.If you don't, it will freeze the wine popping the corks and leaking in the unit.If you get the parts from Marvell they are much cheaper.

Oh no. Most of these systems do not come from the factory with service ports that allow you to add R-134a. You will need to buy a clamp on piercing valve then add the refrigerant. The leak is most likely in the evaporator coil where the wine is stored, and the R-134a will leak out again soon. Replacement or repairing the leak will take care of the issue, also the weight in ounces of refrigerant should be on the data tag of the unit next to the model number. Try not to exceed the recommended charge.

IF THE CELLAR TEMPERATURE IS AS YOU SAY 48 DEGREES AND IF YOU ARE TURNING THE SCREW ADJUSTMENT ALL THE WAY TO THE WARMER SETTING COUNTER CLOCK WISE AND THE UNIT DOESNT SHUT OFF YOU HAVE A BAD THERMOSTAT AND NEED TO REPLACE IT
